    that's funny. I had never hooked them up, but i watched a video on youtube this morning and told the tester straight out and he said no big deal, i'll walk you thru it and he did.

    So, i'm backing the dolly to the rear trailer (hooked ot the tractor) and i get it all lined up and in and he said at that point we could have just stopped, cuz I had it down. I'm like what? he said oh lord, some guys here for months still can't do that. After that we hooked up, drove around a a few corners and he said "drive to the truck stop 20 miles away, i have to put so many hours and miles with you, but you got this."

    He actually said "of the 10 guys I've tested this year, you are by FAR the best at this". I thought that was pretty funny, hell I haven't driven anything bigger than a auto single axle and a pup since September.

    They turn funny. Still used to a 48 I guess.

    They do turn funny and threw me off. What's funny was Christmas day I pulled a 50' trailer and I hadn't pulled anything bigger then a 28' trailer in over a year at that point.
